Need help with this lower/upper case aliasing question. i know the issue is with how I'm aliasing the values but the error gives zero insight into where the issue is and none of the examples or cheat sheet info is pertinent

The "AS" expression to create an alias must follow each item (separately) that will get an alias:

Select Lower(title) AS "lowercase_title", Upper(author) AS "uppercase_author" From Books;

Select Lower(title),Upper(author) From Books AS "lowercase_title","uppercase_author";

Thanks!

Steven Parker could you please check my most recent post? Your feedback helps me the most and the answer i was given isn't helping and I'm struggling a lot with this section. Thanks!

OK, but a better way to help me find it next time would be tag me in a comment in that other question.
